Dr. Roth and race operations staff members tracked Jeff on an iPad during his return to the 2016 race. Much to Jeff's surprise, Dr. Roth who serves as Director of Medicine for the marathon and Director of Emergency Medicine for the City of Pittsburgh, was tracking Jeff every step of the half-marathon course. Dr. Roth even had doctors shadowing Jeff along the course. Dr. Roth told me that its very rare to have runners race while they have an ICD (Internal Cardioverter Defibrillator) implant. Dr. Roth was one of the closest medical team members to Jeff when he collapsed during the 2015 marathon.
